Fiancée Stolen by MC, I Trip Them up-Chapter 163 - 99: The "Ancient" Within the Mystical Gate!

Chapter 163: Chapter 99: The "Ancient" Within the Mystical Gate!
So Zhao Yi was chased away, and everyone else continued brainstorming in the Golden Hall.
At that time, Zhao Yi only felt that his Mystical Gate had changed, but he didn’t know what it had become.
Looking at the vast world in front of him now, Zhao Yi finally understood.
When Uncle Zhao Yuan had first performed the top-down imparting on Zhao Yi, his Mystical Gate was just a wall.
That was the closest Zhao Yi had ever been to breaking through the Mystical Gate.
Unfortunately, Uncle Zhao Yuan was too weak. Instead of succeeding, he turned the wall into a sea, messing things up.
Now it was completely over.
The entire Zhao family couldn’t fill this world even if they wanted to!
As Zhao Yi was feeling regretful, he suddenly had a feeling and quickly turned his head.
On the distant horizon appeared a giant red phantom.
The phantom was human-shaped, towering at a hundred feet, with its eyes closed and a terrifying black hole in the middle of its brow.
Seeing that figure, Zhao Yi instinctively uttered "His" name.
"Gu!"
After saying it, Zhao Yi was stunned.
He didn’t know what "Gu" meant, or whether it was "His" name or his group’s name.
This thought popped into Zhao Yi’s head naturally upon seeing the phantom.
This thought seemed to be hidden in his genes, only expressing itself when the conditions were right.
Zhao Yi tried to see more clearly, but the red figure vanished suddenly.
Then everything went black before his eyes as his consciousness left the Mystical Gate World.
Zhao Yi snapped back to reality.
Remembering the giant figure he had just seen, he was inwardly shaken, yet he kept a composed expression.
Zhao Yi withdrew his foot and waved his hand to dismiss the three women.
Nu’Er and Shuang’Er respectfully saluted and backed out of the room.
Xu Yue’Er hesitated, wanting to say something.
She still had a task to accomplish today.
She had just conveyed the Four Seas Dragon Race’s stance towards the Immortal Alliance, and Zhao Yi had not yet responded.
She wouldn’t be able to back if she returned now.
As Xu Yue’Er was about to speak, she caught Shuang’Er subtly shaking her head at her from the corner of her eye.
Shuang’Er’s meaning was clear: don’t go against Zhao Yi.
Xu Yue hesitated for a moment, sighed inwardly, and then backed out of the room.
Zhao Yi didn’t look at them.
He was still thinking about the "Gu" in the Mystical Gate World.
He had a vague premonition.
It seemed like "Gu" was trying to warn him.
There were things in this world gradually revealing themselves that he was unaware of.
Unfortunately, Zhao Yi had read too few classics, and knew even less about cultivation.
If he had, he could have deduced something from the information on "Gu".
"Ah, you only regret not having enough books when you need them!"
Zhao Yi had never regretted not reading more than he did now.
"Someone come here!"
Zhao Yi called out softly, and Qing Feng immediately jumped in through the window.
She clasped her fists and said, "Master."
Zhao Yi pulled out the Crown Prince’s Gold Medal from his waist and casually tossed it to Qing Feng.
"Issue the solitary edict, summon Miaoyin Zhenren for an audience immediately."
When in doubt, look for Miaoyin.
At a critical moment, Zhao Yi thought of his living encyclopedia again.
Miaoyin’s vast knowledge was no less than that of Prince Zhi.
As long as there was any record of "Gu" in the classics, Miaoyin would be able to find it.
Seeing Zhao Yi’s serious expression, Qing Feng understood the gravity of the situation, accepted the token, respectfully saluted, and promptly jumped out from the upstairs window.
Zhao Yi glanced up at the sky.
The sun was setting, leaving only its afterglow.
Yao Family Town was just a thousand miles from Shengjing City. With Miaoyin Zhenren’s cultivation, she could arrive by midnight at the latest.
Zhao Yi wanted to re-enter the Mystical Gate World, but the previously existing desire for destruction was gone, and without the trigger to connect, he couldn’t sense the presence of the Mystical Gate at all.
Zhao Yi recalled that the desire for destruction had arisen from Xu Yue’Er. He immediately said, "Someone call Xu Yue’Er."
Xu Yue’Er arrived quickly.
Before she could kneel, Zhao Yi eagerly gestured her over, then raised his foot.
Xu Yue’Er was momentarily stunned, then her face reddened as she respectfully knelt before the couch.
Boom!
Seeing this, Zhao Yi’s perverted desire to destroy surged again.
Then everything brightened, and he returned to the Mystical Gate World once more.
Knowing time was tight, Zhao Yi wasted no time and directly looked towards the distant red phantom of "Gu" above the sky.
"Red?"
This time, having prepared beforehand, Zhao Yi observed many details.
The color of "Gu"’s phantom was red, and the hole in the center of his brow wasn’t a wound but the shape of a giant sword.
When the giant sword disappeared, it left a hole in the brow.
Zhao Yi fixed his gaze on "Gu", hoping to extract more useful information from "him".
Maybe due to a lack of strength in the Mystical Gate World, the message conveyed by the phantom to Zhao Yi was just one word, back and forth.
"Gu!"
After ten breaths, Zhao Yi once again emerged from the Mystical Gate World.
Zhao Yi impatiently waved his hand as if entering the sage state after finishing business and shooed away like a patron.
Xu Yue’Er, with her face scrunched up, looked both aggrieved and unable to cry, trying to find a smile that wouldn’t appear.
Zhao Yi ignored her and summoned Linglong to tell him about the history of the Cultivation Realm.
Miaoyin Zhenren arrived even quicker than Zhao Yi had estimated.
Just after Zhao Yi finished dinner, served by Nu’Er and Shuang’Er, Miaoyin Zhenren jumped in from outside the window.
Seeing Zhao Yi lounging lazily on the couch digesting, she unceremoniously took a seat beside him, squeezed him to the side, and claimed his spot.
"I’m exhausted!"
Miaoyin Zhenren stretched comfortably, her impressive curves fully on display before Zhao Yi.
Reaching over, she grabbed some pastries from the nearby table, straddling the couch as she ate and said, "After receiving your token, I didn’t delay for a moment, ran a thousand miles in the time of one incense stick. My calves almost bulked up! You’d better have something, or I’ll break your legs!"
Zhao Yi was already used to this woman’s uninhibited demeanor in front of him.
Zhao Yi solemnly asked, "Have you heard of ’Gu’?"
Hmm?
Hearing this, Miaoyin Zhenren paused.
She turned to Zhao Yi, curiously asked, "Where did you hear that?"
After she spoke, she suddenly gritted her teeth, exclaiming, "You didn’t summon me from a thousand miles away over some random word you heard somewhere, did you? I haven’t beaten you in two years—are you itching for it?"
Zhao Yi didn’t respond, but instead addressed the surroundings, "Now that Miaoyin Zhenren is here, all of you may leave."
Upon hearing Zhao Yi’s words, the surrounding void fluctuated.
"We shall take our leave!"
Moments later, Miaoyin Zhenren told Zhao Yi, "Now everyone’s gone, you can speak."
Zhao Yi, with a serious expression, recounted what he saw of "Gu" in the Mystical Gate.
After hearing it, Miaoyin Zhenren’s jaw almost hit the ground.
"Are you saying your Mystical Gate turned into a world?"
"And you went in?"
"And you saw a ’Gu’?"
Zhao Yi nodded, "Absolutely true!"
He asked Miaoyin Zhenren, "What exactly is that ’Gu’? Why was ’he’ in my Mystical Gate? Am I in danger?"
Miaoyin Zhenren seemed profoundly affected, waved her hand, and, with a bewildered shake of the head, said, "Don’t speak first, let me think."
After a while, she looked up at Zhao Yi, her eyes flickering with an unusual color.
"Let’s take it one step at a time!"
"First, tell me how you entered the Mystical Gate World!"
"That’s simply impossible!"
Hearing her words, Zhao Yi hesitated slightly.
He hesitated for a moment and said, "My way of entering the Mystical Gate is somewhat unique."
Hearing this, Miaoyin Zhenren instead became intrigued.
"How unique?"
Zhao Yi didn’t know how to explain, so he solemnly said:
"Someone, summon Xu Yue’Er for an audience!"
